G.E.M.S

What you hear is the wisdom
Of a man knocked down
Left back and forgotten
Like he'd never be found
But I made my way back
Through the dirt and sludge
My foundation won't crack
This god-like body won't budge
I'm more than what you think
Even more than what it seems
I'ma GEM in the dirt
I had to shake it off to see the gleam
Every man has wants
But doesn't always get he needs
I'm the opposite, I get what I got to get
Everything else will come, that's what I believe
My work, puts me at ease
When it works, that's when I breathe
If it hurts, that's what you need
If it works, that's when you lead
There is no one on this Earth to water down my worth
Or, make me go against the reasons
I put in all this work, regardless who it hurts
And hope I don't fall to no treasons
This the life I was given
Regardless, if I want to live it
I guess, I gotta pivot, dribble, switch
Hit the paint, then Pro-hop to go get it
This is more than just a feeling
I am more than willing
I don't need convincing
You can just forget it
How can I ever bother to be avant-garde
If I can't be committed

Where can I go
There's so many places
I'm a convict tho
Among these civilian faces
Civility is obsolete
The powers that be are more racist
They would rather treat me like a dog
And shoot me in the Street
Than bring up these Cases
Well, whaddya know
We all gotta go
So be trained to Go
Anything can happen this you should know
From that I got weight on my shoulders bigger than Ginobili's nose
I will truck through anybody for goal
I will catch a body, simply of Code
I will never forget what I am owed
You will never forget when I am thru
Luck only favors the bold
Wealth only favors the cold
We all wanna talk about war
Well, fuck it, we'll play Game of Thrones
I'll ravage your city then burn down your homes
When I am done I will dig up the bones
Nothing can stop when I'm in the zone
No one can stop me cause I'm on my own
When the smoke clears, I'll be standing alone
I've emerged from the dirt
Washed away all the mud
My true form is revealed
I'm rare and beloved
I was not easily made
I'm a result of the pressure
Every lesson that I learned
Is Gained Experience Making me Stronger
Gems
